dark as a dungeon - jeff loops lyrics
[verse 1]
come listen, you fella, so young and so fine
oh, seek not your fortune in the dark dreary mine
it’ll form as a habit and seep in your soul
’til the stream of your blood runs as black as the coal
[chorus]
it’s dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
where danger is double and pleasures are few
where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
it’s dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
[verse 2]
the midnight, the morning, the middle of the day
it’s the same to the minеr who labors away
where the dеmons of death often come by surprise
one fall off the slate and you’re buried alive
[verse 3]
and it’s many a man that i’ve known in my day
who have lived just to labor his young life away
like a fiend with his dope or a drunk with his wine
a man will have l*st for the lure of the mine
[chorus]
it’s dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
where danger is double, pleasures are few
where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
it’s dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
[verse 4]
and i hope when i die in the ages shall roll
my body will blacken and turn into coal
and i’ll look from the door of my heavenly home
and i’ll pity the miner digging my bones
[chorus]
it’s dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
where danger is double, pleasures are few
where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
it’s dark as a dungeon way down in the mine
